Happy Friday! How about a giveaway to kick off your Friday morning?
If you adore high-quality fruit, today’s giveaway will be right up your alley.
Back in October I had the honor of touring the incredible Harry & David orchards in Medford, Oregon with a handful of other bloggers. It was a truly unforgettable trip and I fell in love with the company, their delicious food and beautiful Oregon!
I’ve stayed in touch with the folks at Harry & David and was awfully excited when one of their incredible gift baskets showed up at my doorstep last Saturday.
The basket was the company’s Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe and I immediately pulled all of the different kinds of delicious fresh fruit out of the basket to check out the goods!
As of this morning, Ryan and I have made our way through 90 percent of the basket and were, once again, impressed with the high quality of the fruit Harry & David delivered. Every single piece of fruit was blemish-free and full of flavor.
Naturally the company’s pears deserve a lot of praise, but I was particularly impressed with the quality of the mango, kiwi and pineapple in this basket!
I swear this stuff is like fruit candy. So sweet!
As for the gift basket itself, you better believe I kept it. We’re now using it as a pretty way to store towels.
And now here’s your chance to win your own Harry & David Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe!
In the basket:
- 3 Royal Riviera Pears
- 4 Apples
- 2 Kiwi
- Papaya
- Pineapple
- Baby Bananas
- 2 Limes
- Avocado
- Mango
To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment below, telling me what fruit you’re most excited to try in the basket, or, if you’d like to send the basket to someone else as a surprise, please comment telling me who you’d send it to and why. I will randomly select a winner on Monday morning.
Good luck!

It all looks so good! It’s been a few months since I had a good pear so I’d probably be most excited for those.
I’m excited to try all of it! I live in Minnesota (-18* today!!) so fresh, delicous produce would be fabulous…our little grocery store just isn’t doing so great in the produce department lately!
I’d love to try the KIWI – I can’t even remember the last time I’ve eaten one. Delicious!
Pineapple and the pears! Yum!!
I’d love to have the mango or those legendary Harry and David pears!!
It all looks so delicious but definitely the pineapple!
I would love to try the avocado. They are a new love of mine. Its fun to peel and eat it plain with a spoon! I enjoy eating them before a good workout too. You also always rave about the pears, so one of those would be devoured first!
Pineapple! Pineapple has been at the top of my pregnancy cravings. I just can’t get enough!
I love Harry and David!!! I have never tried a pineapple from them, so I would definitely have to go with that. It was my favorite fruit when I lived in East Africa.
I would absolutely love this basket for the variety…pears, mango, kiwi, and papaya. These are fruits I love but can’t afford to get while in college… It’s always the same bananas and strawberries for me!
I would send it to my sister because she just had a baby a couple of months ago and has not been feeling too great.
Pineapple! It’s definitely my favorite fruit!
I love kiwi! And, I just read an article that eating kiwi an hour before bed helps you sleep better. I’m excited to give it a try and see if it helps this insomnia I’ve been having lately!
I ADORE mango, but would love any of the fruit from the basket!
Oh man I’d love to try that pineapple! It reminds me of those Maui golds I love so much from Hawaii 🙂
I really want to try those pears! But I love ALL fruit!
I would love to try the pineapple and mango!
I think I would actually like to send the basket as a surprise to my husband. As a full-time grad student, a part-time employee, and an amazing husband, he’s been working so hard to eat healthy despite his crazy schedule and I couldn’t be more proud of him! I might have to steal a pear though… I’ve never tried one!
I’d love to try the pears (and everything else!)
Avocado! Yum!!
Royal Riviera Pears!
the pear mostly!! 🙂
I would love to send the basket to a friend who just had a baby!!! What a fabulous treat that would be!!
i’d love it all, but especially the mango and papaya since those are so hard to get fresh adn ripe!
Definitely the mango! Love fresh mango!
I can never turn down a good avocado! The pineapple looks delicious too!
I love fresh pineapple!
I’d love to try the pears and pineapple!
Would have to go for the pears since everyone always talks about how good they are!
Definitly would love to try their avocado! Such high quality stuff!
Definitely the pears and mango. I love fresh fruit!
I would love to try the papaya, I don’t think I’ve ever had one!
I’m thinking tropical guacamole with the avocados, lime, and chunks of pineapple!
Yay fruit! I love Harry and David pears best!
The pineapple!
I would love to try their mangoes as well as pineapple!! I bet they are especially sweet since they’re from Harry&David!
The Pineapple
Would love to try those pears…they look yummy!
Pears!!!
I would love to try the pineapple!!!!
My Grandma turns 94 this Sunday…chocolate is normally a given for her gift but unfortunately she has been told she cant eat it anymore. (THE HORROR!) Growing up, she would always have the fruit of the month from Harry and David at her house. I would love to return the favor, of letting her enjoy someone else slicing up her pear. It always tastes better that way:)
I would send the basket to my Aunt! My beautiful aunt is going through surgery next week. She is battling cancer. This basket would be a perfect pick me up for her and my uncle!
I’m sure the pears are fantastic, but I’m most excited about my favorite fruit: mango! I’d have to make somebody else cut/peel it since I’m allergic to the oils on mango skin! :).
I am a fruit ADDICT!!! I honestly will have no problem enjoying every piece of fruit in this basket but I would be really excited to share the papaya with my mom. We live in Washington State so papaya are not great this time of year and she LOVES them!
Love the basket and your fancy towels!
I would send a basket to my mother in law. She’s so thoughtful in always sending care packages to my husband and I (they’re in Sarasota, we’re in NY) and we’re not really in a financial place to do any of the big fun things we’d love to do for them! So a yummy basket would do the trick 🙂
I am crushing on that pineapple baby!
Those Harry and David pears are my favorite!!
ohh the pears!! mmm, my mouth is watering just thinking about them!
I am on the verge of drooling looking at all that yummy fruit. The pineapple is screaming my name-I LOVE pineapple 🙂 yum yum nom nom
I would love to have the Mango!
